EPISODE REVIEWS

This episode felt like a whole movie with the plot! It had proper build-up, the whole climax slope and a bittersweet end. I do think it's cause of the duration, but the episode could really have done more with Rocco, he felt underdeveloped and what happened at the end didn't land

Rocco's presence and whole personality in the story as very impactful! I wish he had been a recurring character in the series, he would have worked well with those in the main cast. It really showed a different perspective of those less fortunate in the eyes of this series' world

The introduction of Venus and the idea that the conditions vary by planet feels not only fresh, but a fun take on the interplanetary themes of this world. The helium scene with Spike made me really curious about the other planets and different buildings/structures on each.
